Katie Price has been seen on her way to court after she was arrested on Thursday night.
The 36-year-old was told in court she must attend a further hearing relating to her bankruptcies “no ifs or buts”. Judge Daniel Schaffer gave Katie a date of August 27 at 10.30am.
He said: “You have to attend that date, no ifs or buts, no going abroad, no holidays.” Katie said she understood and added: “I will move my diary for it.”
She later asked if she could attend “by Zoom or in a side room”, to which the judge said: “No.”

Katie told the court she did not have legal representation, saying: “I have tried to get legal advice but have been charged £50,000 upfront.” She added: “I can’t get legal aid because I earn. I don’t know what to do on this.”

The glamour model was picked up by police on Thursday (August 8) after she returned to the UK. A warrant for her arrest was issued after she missed a bankruptcy hearing, instead going to Turkey for plastic surgery.
A statement from the Metropolitan Police confirmed: “A 46-year-old woman from Surrey was arrested at Heathrow Airport at 19:45hrs on Thursday, 8 August for failing to appear at court. She has been remanded in custody at a west London police station to appear at court tomorrow, Friday, 9 August.”

Katie arrived at Heathrow airport with her boyfriend, Married At First Sight UK star JJ Slater. They had been in Turkey, where Katie had a facelift operation.
She was pictured in the back of a police van with her face covered in surgery wounds and bandages.
The mum-of-five addressed her impending arrest on social media before returning to the UK. She said: “I would just like to thank everyone that has been showing support and compassion to my situation this week with my pending arrest. Despite what has been misreported, I am now in route back from filming my documentary.”

She insisted: “I was never just abroad being ignorant to what’s going on and I stand by the facts, which is that there have been miscommunications here between a number of people here to do with my bankruptcy.
“However now I am returning home from work, and I am aware that I am about to be detained at the airport which is obviously what the courts feel is necessary. I do hope of course for my son’s sake who is with me that they will allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake as this will be extremely disturbing for him to see.
“Whilst I understand the importance and severity of the matter, I do feel like I am being treated like a criminal.”
